• d 116 NI geld therefore move, that the Printer of he roil' die hronght to the liar of the litmse, in tic eusto(ty of the Serjrant at Arms. The SPEAKER into, m‘td the Honourable Gentle man, that the first step to be taken was, to deliver in the Paper of which h complained. The course woul4 then be, to move that we Printer do attend nt the Bar of the House on any future day that !night, be determined upoo. Mr. lißitesPota) accordinglidelivered in a copy of the Morning Post, and the 'objectionable passage was read by thi. Clerk. ' • BiutasFosto then repeated,. that he looked on the put:J . l . l66On of Hitch .a ruis-statement as a Ilross lire:lch of the privileges of the Hon Se.. At the sante time, as he did not believe that it had been ate in trutioual tnis:Tpresentation, he did not wish that any puniAnnent should he visited upon the person ottending. Hts objeet in rising had beeu to Mention the'eircumstance to the House, mid to avail himself of the oppertunitf of distinctly stating that he had never Hied the latieuage imputed to him. If it were the opinioe of the -iodic that he ought to do so, he would move that this was a gross breach of the pri vitt:4es of the House, and follow that Motion by an, other,- that the Printer of, the Paper &e brought to the liar 7 —(A genera/ cis of An, no I)---&tt if not, he would . adopt any tither mode of proceeding that might be suggested to him as proper, under the ex isting circurnstauces. The SPEAKER observed, that there was a course sometimes pursued by the. House, which it would be in their discretien to fellow, or not,. as they might think tit in the presen(instatice. It was, where .a contplaiut was made, such as that just preleired by the'Hon., Gentleman, to hold 'the transaCtion in View, and to adjouth any further 'proceeding upon it to a future day,' in order to give the House an op . i 3or i tm ity . o f see tl ici w het her'the cooduCt complained of would be persevered in, or upheld. Batmskono, acquiescing in the suggestion of the Speaker, moved, that the further consideration of this bdsiness be pbstponed to Monday se'neight. Lord FOLKSTON Seconded the InOttoll, and bore testiMoey to the accuracy of the statement of the Hoe. Gentleman, that he had not used the words imPu.ed to him. Of this fad, every Gentle man who was present at the time must he pe r fectly con vineel../s, to the course of proceeding, he api.roved of the milder one now proposed, because lie was sa tisfied chat e,ery purpose of justgying.the fon.Gen. titerian's . character must be :ms.wered by the ex: retnelyhanesoroe,, manly, candid, and honourable warmer in which he bad taken up the business. Mi. N. CAovaar, though he would not Oppose the postpooementof do. business, yet at the same time could not ret rain from expressing his opinion that the House passed over OtlcilCeS of this ni4turg too lightly. `ThcCHANCIMLOR of the ExctlEayett said a few work.is, iii conszquence of what had fallen front the Hon. Gentleman under the Gallery (Mr. Calvert)' , He allowed with that lion. Gentlemah, that when a complaint was . wide of a, breach of' privilege occa sioned by a MiireprCsentafion in the Reports, which by the connivance of the House (a connivance which perhaps Ought not to l, u discontinued), were daily published of the seininwnts of any Hem. Member, the House would Cow,ikier well befere they re based or delayed to tat ::c the proper Steps to assert their privileges, arid puuish the. otfeniler. At the 83ino time it must be evident to the House, that the indivAtaili by whom those reports were given, must with all their accuracy, be' liable, occasionally, to though unintentional: mistakes. He allowed that a oune coMpletd tnisrepre.sentation never ex isted than that broughL ferward by the Hon: Gen tleman ; and he hid himself :Observed to-day, in the description published in the newspapers, of' the liar latiVe Which.he (Mr.' Pereeval) had last night. given to the' House, several,, very gross errors. But he Tog, sati,tied hisown mind, that however gross, they roust all be unintentiorial ; and he should therefore support the,!MotioU for an adjournment of Hop further proceeding. , Mr. W. SMITH also supported the motion for postponemetn, because it coUldJlot bo supposed that . the error was otherwise than unintentional, or that' thel person who had committed it was at •all con scious of the bad consequences to which , his inad vertence. might have tended.. At the same time 'he .confessed, that had the,House thought tit to call the offklider inunediatecv to the Bar, to hear his account gf_the circumstance, umol his apology for it, and in order :hat he might receive from the Speaker such a sp ec ies of reptimam! asittnight have been, expedient to:give, liar would, have had no reason, to complain, and the assertors of most tt:.bWllded libeity of the pret:(ol.‘'iloiri he profeSsed himself to be ,one), could nov have , accnsedt , the House of. insisting too strongly upon their privilegett.

He agreed, however, entirely with the Right Hoe. the chancellor el the Exchequer e - that slight tens takes should be passed otter, and that, at the - present period, fits ei‘eould wish to seeelke Orders ot the ,House enforced with resped to the publication'ef their proceedings. Mr. WiluilittfulD__observed,..that ..anyerniareW s .se• sentations which Might occasionally,,or ,uniutene i tentionally, creep intd the reporte of their - debates, were wholly-unimportant, compared with the great good which resulted frona liaising the substance of what Passed in that House made known to the coun try. The Hon. Gentleman, who bad just sat down, had declared, that the unbridled liceptiousoceii; A?f the press must be ctirteiled. So. far was he freen, agreeing with thin Hen. Gentleman, that from whet„ had passed lately e hesthought it was evident Wet to . ] the licentiousness of the press the country was very_', Luisa indebted. lie trusted that HQ addltional shackheSe ar fetteis would ever be imposed upon the :liberty ot the press.' They would only, hind the ceuntry in ignorance and blindness till some ,dreadtut 'plOsion should take place, the natural result of that state which he had described. Ths; Honourable Gentleman talked of exemplary pueishment for au) , gross misrepresentation of their, proceedings. The House had already the power to Mind whatever punishment they thought proper in such a case, but since he had sat in Parliament, he had never wit nessed any exercise of that power that was produc tive of good consequences. With resped to the general, licentiousness of the press, hewever there might be individual instances of laxity, it could not be said that the Crown Officers had been criminally 'lax ih the prosecution, or the Courts of Justice cri.. ttiivally lenient in the pqnishment of libellers. 13 '4 it seemed, that among the tnisrepresentetious l which [tad gone abroad of whet took place last night, were Sdnie relating to the narrative of the Right Hon. Gentleman oppOSite (the Chancellot of the Exche quer). That narrative was in his'opinion most dis.;. Lind, clear, and imPartial, • and he wished to know Whether it could not be inserted id the minutes of - evidence, r by which all Mistakes with respect to it would hencelerward be preeluded: This he men tioned incidentally •the chief object for which he had risen was nireply to the speech of the Hono rable Gentleman' who had immediately preceded him, and to contend, that no additional 'restriction was necessary to be impesed, upon that most valua ble right of Briton.----the liberty of the prebs. • Mr. Yoiot.F. explained, •atiti •denied that he had, uttered a word which was liable to the interpretae non of 'the Hon. Gentleman. He• had positively stated, that in 'his opinion no new sanaion was ne cessary, either in the municipal law, or in the law of that House. Mr. WHITBREAD allowed, that in the commence ment of the observations matte by the Hon. Gentle man, lie had expressed his opinion that no new law 'was necessary, but in the coarse of his speech he had used words, implying, that the growing licen tiobstiess of the press would soon require the inter.. fereece of the Legislature. Mr. Yomis ph4erved, that the Hon. Gentleman bad ccimpletely Misapprehended him. That lie had done so evid.2nt, trom his (Mr. Yorke's) having declared his concurierce in the motion tor an ack. journi»ent ot the bubjed before the Hb`use. Mr. WiIITIMEAD said, that he had certainly con ceived that the. Hon. Gentleman, in the 'conclusion of his speech, had, departed from the sentiments which he had expressed at the eonuneticetnent. Mr: Yottiee totally denied that he had so. Mr. WHITBREAD rejoined, that he had only Said that he had " conceived" thet to have - been. the case. Mr!' BRAGGE BATHURST declared; that if the Hon. Gentleman' (Mr. Whithrea'4), had confined his observations to the question, whether or not the narrative given last night by the Chancellor of the Exchequer should be put on the minutes, he should have confined himself 'to state, that, in his opinion, stieb a proceeding would be very irregUlar. But the Hon. Gehtleman had chosen to take a wider range, and the drift' of his remarks seemed to be, that - the licentiousness of the press had beets 'beneficial to the country. FroM this proposition he totally dissented. 'Those who were rnest disposed to. acknowledge Mid . contend for the friefits Which the liberty of the press produced, 'Woe ;1,60, most ready to look, n & with a jealous eye o the • HS that its licentious- , nets occa s ioned. there was . no one w boat he knew 'that was disposed to call on the legislature for ady tires sanction on the subject, yet who would say, that to oils licentiousness there otigin to be no houn 'dary i 'lt was to pri.serve the liberty of the Press "th:tt he fbi one wished to prevent its lieenti6us nes3e lie did hot exactly understand what thelld nourable Geinlemap Meant by stating, tliat recent circumstances had sufficiently evinced the advantage, derived from, even the lieemieusnest of the press. If he apuded to the proceedings before the Ilause with respeCt to an Illustrioes Perlonege, it would Le necessary only to 'say, in refutetioo of his opi nion, Ulm the 11 , ,n. Geutletiman, in Wier). those proceedings had originated, had distinetlyoteted, that hoe) person Who was supposed to be' intimately, cßonated with some of the libelS alluded to, he had hot been able to obtain the least itifot minion on the t:ibjedt. Net' did lie think the Hon. Gentleman at ali iii' die obseri+atiOns he had thrown out on the, conduct of the Crown Officers feel the Conris of Justice. 'With - regard to the proceeding befwe the House, althotigh it was nin in itself very important, yet the wisest - ahem:tit etetaitily trust be. butficientiy painful, td the Hon. Genylenian who had instituted the complaint; end he knew many in stances in which similar MiSrepresentetions had been felt as very serious grievances. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER repeated, that the misrepresentatiop was unquestionably a goes one, hot that it could not: be supposed to bo intentional,. The ...Hon. Gentleman bad asked : if he (MrePerceval) was disposed te enter the suttee bleat which, hp had made lest in the Militates. lie, could' have ho'objeetioh to do so ; but he cutild exit ' see hovy it would be consistent with .the proceedings Of the House' for him to make an entry on the 'mie, trees of a statement which' was'inerely the openiog: of a cast;, 'Which he afterwards called evideece prove.' If there was anything in timt statornent which was considered desireble as evidence, he wad as subject as any Member the House to be exa- Mined'ilpon that point. It might, perhaps be &led hall nit called Colohel Hiniiiittie to crirrisho rate the uariative which he had • hitch the honour to submit to the Home. His reason was, that after SinderOs prevarieatiog, he (S.) baci come tbr‘vfir,l to dechire that A4h4l Col.. Hamilton would have • othPrwise been,ealle4 to prove. Cplonel could, howeveititi'be exarnined,lf it should be thought necessary. _ _ The ATTORNEY-GENERAL rose.--He said that an -Horte:•-•"Gentletnan •opposite -- (Mr. --- whirtyretm — trar been ple4sed to deylase,'',o4t i the present Law Orli cere of the Crown had not.,been remiss in entering_ into prosecutions for libels." That term, well worked ep and sent abroad,., Miklitcarodece a very nt sentiment in the public. Indeed, he himself could not avOid,sopp,oiing it possible, that by " not being remiss" the'Hon. Gent: meant to imply that they had beeh more than properly diligent, Whether beJneant soar nbi he' L did not know, latifYtie, 'Words were capable of that construction, and ,would;-hilied no 'doubt, receive that. eenstruttiotY from some of those, OSpeeling whose candn& -complaiht 4 , as then Ilefore the..

With respect to the jedginents of the Courts of Justice, the Honourable Gentle Man had insinuated, and that not darkly, thdt they were severe.. • He fully believed, that the learned, u p right Judges of our Courts; who 'had pronounced. their lientetices with. the utmost deliberation and iinpar.., tiAity, would not want able defenders in the House of: Commons, • if their conduei were fairly, properly; and manfully brought forward; but he did not chink justice was One to them, When general, retleaions were thus thrown ant to be re-publlsheA by . person4, un the condud of some of whom their judgment had been passed; and this under i he aeubbrity , ol.the Hon. Gentleman, that their judgments had been se vere. • He had not bead the Hon. Gentleman-spe city any particular instances of severity. He dared to say that be would not , do so ; .because the Hon. Gentleman knew that if there 'was' a pet, legnituate, and constitutional ground nf complaint against them, that was not the way in which it.ought to be pre : . fared. Their judgments, he was well convinced, would steed the tnnst.severe investigation of the pub lic,' or ef any individual, bat thou thatluquirY ought to be definite; it should be Markl;Ll with peecision what wa's complained of, in. order to give those against, whom the complaint was. made some proper opportunity:to defend themselves. They ought - nett .to be driven, as they :might be .cfriven, by . the way iu, which the Hon.

Mr. Secretary .C4NNII G was astonished that Lord Pottonesteit spike to order. He conceived that the House had, for a considerable time, swerved from the objea, before them. It ,was perfectly dis orderly thus to prolong this debate, or to enter into any examination of the Cdurts Justice.. • :Mt% CANNING, in his own conception,'Avasgtri6. ly 'to order. He had entered the House a considera ble t ime, After the commencement of the discussion, but he understood that it began with a complaint on the. part of an Hon..

Whether the Hon. Gentlimiart coMplainerige nerally-of the administration-of justice, or whether, as it appeared by 'his' subsequent statement, lie, complained of any particular instance of vial-ad ministration, the su(jea was one which it MiLIS, perfe&ly'fitting for . a Member to introduce' to the. House; but, then, he' dare not venture to say'he would admonish, but he would suggest to the'Hon.. Gentleman that it ought to bOdone With.the utmost' gravity and' deliberation, and •:net incidentally in, such a debate as the' present. Whenever the Hon. Gentleman might think 14 - oper to bring the disixis-, :slot) fOrward,, he had no doubt that the venetat4e: Magistrates whom he accused find able De fenders rut that 'house, provided- with 'both, the means and the inclinaii,r to do them. kis:ice.
